    Synthesis and characterization by FTIR spectroscopy of silica aerogels prepared using several Si(OR)4 and R′′Si(OR′)3 precursors

    No full text
    We report the synthesis and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy characterization results dealing with the surface modification of silica aerogels obtained via a two-step sol-gel process where various silicon precursors and co-precursors were used. The hydrolysis and poly-condensation steps were followed by carbon dioxide supercritical drying (Tc = 31.1 °C; Pc = 73.7 bar). The silicon precursors contain four identical hydrolysable alkoxy groups (methoxy or ethoxy), while in the co-precursors, one of the alkoxy groups is substituted by a non-hydrolysable alkyl group (methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-butyl, n-octyl, vinyl or phenyl). Identically, surface-functionalized silica aerogels were obtained from various silicon precursor-co-precursor combinations and their chemical structures were compared. The infrared spectroscopy revealed the existence of chemically comparable solid networks with some differences due to the nature of the silicon precursors. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.

    Synthesis and Characterization of Mesoporous Hybrid Silica-Polyacrylamide Aerogels and Xerogels

    No full text
    We report the synthesis of highly porous hybrid silica-polyacrylamide aerogels where the inorganic network was obtained through the hydrolysis and poly-condensation of tetramethoxysilane via a two-step sol-gel process while the polyacrylamide polymer was made by photo-copolymerization of two organic monomers, the acrylamide and the bis-acrylamide. These aerogels were obtained after a carbon dioxide supercritical drying while the corresponding xerogels were dried by simple evaporation. These materials, as well as pure silica and polyacrylamide aerogels and xerogels, were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, solid-state 29Si and 13C NMR spectroscopy, Thermogravimetric Analysis, a nitrogen adsorption-desorption technique, and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The FTIR and NMR spectra and the TGA-DTA analyses confirm the coexistence of highly branched silica and polyacrylamide networks reflecting the hybrid nature of the materials obtained. Nitrogen adsorption measurements reveal high specific surface areas and pore size distributions disclosing the mesoporous character of these hybrid materials. Hybrid silica-polyacrylamide aerogels having a specific surface area equal to 572 m 2-g and a pore volume 1.92 cm 3-g were successfully prepared for the first time in this study. The high porosity of these aerogels is due to a better resistance of the silica network to capillary forces during the supercritical drying when silica coexists with a polyacrylamide network. © 2010 Springer Science+Business Media B.V.Abramian L, 2009, CHEM ENG J, V150, P403, DOI 10.1016-j.cej.2009.01.019; Akl J, 2009, J MOL CATAL A-CHEM, V312, P18, DOI 10.1016-j.molcata.2009.06.026; Al-Oweini R, 2009, J MOL STRUCT, V919, P140, DOI 10.1016-j.molstruc.2008.08.025; Banet P, 2008, SENSOR ACTUAT B-CHEM, V130, P1, DOI 10.1016-j.snb.2007.07.103; BARRETT EP, 1951, J AM CHEM SOC, V73, P373, DOI 10.1021-ja01145a126; BERTOLUZZA A, 1982, J NON-CRYST SOLIDS, V48, P117, DOI 10.1016-0022-3093(82)90250-2; Brinker C.

    Mercury removal from aqueous solutions using silica, polyacrylamide and hybrid silica-polyacrylamide aerogels

    No full text
    Mercury(II) ions adsorption from aqueous solutions onto silica, polyacrylamide, and hybrid silica-polyacrylamide aerogels is studied. The aerogels structure was verified by FTIR spectroscopy and their texture by nitrogen adsorption. The adsorbents were tested under different experimental conditions where the effect of temperature, pH, contact time, initial mercury(II) concentration, and aerogels quantity were investigated. The mercury adsorption onto the three aerogels was shown to be very fast, with the fastest being performed at 45 °C onto the hybrid aerogels. pH 11 was revealed optimum indicating a superlative surface interaction between the adsorbent and the adsorbate. The adsorption kinetics follows a pseudo second-order pointing out the co-existence of chemisorption and physisorption with the intra-particle diffusion being the rate controlling step. The mercury(II) adsorption fits well with Langmuir adsorption isotherms where the polyacrylamide aerogels showed the highest adsorption capacity, followed by the hybrid aerogels. The regeneration of the aerogels at pH 2 and their reuse at pH 11 was conducted for three consecutive reuses where the adsorption capacity was successfully maintained. The hybrid aerogels were found to be the most economically interesting adsorbents due to their noticeable adsorptive capacity after regeneration coupled with their no-swelling behavior. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

    Cobalt ferrite aerogels by epoxide sol-gel addition: Efficient catalysts for the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate

    No full text
    Porous cobalt ferrite aerogel catalysts were obtained by 1,2-epoxide sol-gel process and investigated in the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl phosphate. These materials were synthesized by reacting cobalt and iron salts with propylene oxide in methanol, dried by supercritical carbon dioxide, and calcined between 200 and 800 °C. The catalysts were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption-desorption technique, and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The as-prepared aerogel surface exhibits M-OH groups that disappear after annealing, which enhances the spinel structure. This was coupled with a better crystallinity revealed by XRD peaks sharpness. The crystallite sizes were found to be between 6.3 and 28.1 nm. In addition, the catalysts revealed high porosities that decrease as the annealing temperature increases. The catalysis showed that the catalytic activity significantly rely on the synthesis procedure and mainly the calcination temperature. Samples calcined at 600 °C and above did not show any catalytic activity, however, the highest catalytic efficiency was for those calcined at 200 °C with 100percent selectivity for the 4-nitrophenol. The correlation of the characterization techniques and the catalysis tests revealed that the catalytic properties of these sol-gel materials are due to the existence of residual surface OH groups. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.

    Immobilized polyoxometalates onto mesoporous organically-modified silica aerogels as selective heterogeneous catalysts of anthracene oxidation

    No full text
    Immobilized molybdovanadophosphoric acids onto organically surface-modified silica aerogels were successfully prepared and investigated in heterogeneous catalysis of anthracene oxidation. The catalysts were obtained by supporting mono- and di-vanadium substituted molybdophosphoric acids on hybrid silica materials synthesized via the sol-gel process followed by surface amino-functionalization. The FTIR, DR UV-vis, and AA spectroscopy confirmed the loading and distribution of the polyoxometalate molecules on the surface of the aerogels. The nitrogen adsorption-desorption technique revealed a systematic decrease in the specific surface area and pore volume after the immobilization of the polyoxometalates. The application of the supported molecules as catalysts for anthracene oxidation showed 100percent selectivity for 9,10- anthraquinone as opposed to the reactions conducted under homogeneous conditions. Moreover, at certain conditions, the catalytic activity of the supported polyoxometalates was greater than their corresponding free polyoxometalates with a clear effect of the surface chemical groups of the supporting silica aerogels. Additionally, the oxidant and solvent nature showed a crucial effect on the catalytic activity and selectivity of the immobilized polyoxometales. The heterogeneous catalysts were regenerated and reused over consecutive catalytic cycles reflecting a potential economic interest in these materials besides their high efficiency in heterogeneous catalysis. © Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2011.Al-Kadamany G, 2010, CHEM-EUR J, V16, P11797, DOI 10.1002-chem.201000786; Al-Oweini R, 2009, J MOL STRUCT, V919, P140, DOI 10.1016-j.molstruc.2008.08.025; Al-Oweini R, 2010, APPL SURF SCI, V257, P276, DOI 10.1016-j.apsusc.2010.06.086; Antonova NS, 2010, J AM CHEM SOC, V132, P7488, DOI 10.1021-ja1023157; BARRETT EP, 1951, J AM CHEM SOC, V73, P373, DOI 10.1021-ja01145a126; Bassil BS, 2011, ANGEW CHEM INT EDIT, V50, P5961, DOI 10.1002-anie.201007617; Berzelius J.J., 1826, POGGENDORFS ANN PHYS, V6, P369; Bi LH, 2009, INORG CHEM, V48, P10068, DOI 10.1021-ic9009306; Bordoloi A, 2007, J CATAL, V247, P166, DOI 10.1016-j.jcat.2007.01.020; Bordoloi A, 2008, J CATAL, V259, P232, DOI 10.1016-j.jcat.2008.08.010; Brinker C.

    Mechanism of revert spacing in a PbCrO 4 Liesegang system

    No full text
    Periodic precipitation of sparingly soluble salts yields parallel Liesegang bands in 1D whose spacings obey either one of two known trends. The overwhelming trend is an increase in spacing as we move away from the junction, while some systems display a decrease in spacing as the bands get further away from the interface. The latter trend is much less common and is known as the revert spacing law. Whereas the direct (normal) spacing law is generally well-undertsood, the revert spacing trend has not been explicitly and distinctly elucidated. In this paper, we propose a mechanism of revert spacing governed by the adsorption of the diffusing CrO 4 2- ions on the formed PbCrO 4 Liesegang bands and carry out a set of experiments that support the suggested scenario. It is shown that this adsorption increases as the band number (n) increases in revert spacing systems, while it decreases as n increases in direct spacing systems. It is concluded that this correlation in opposite directions decisively reveals the role of adsorption in the mechanism. The attraction between the CrO 4 2- and Pb 2+ in the gel causes the bands to form gradually closer and closer. Secondary structure (thinner bands formed within the main ones) obtained under some conditions is discussed in view of the light sensitivity of the chromate ion and the stability of the lead chromate sol. © 2011 American Chemical Society.Antal T, 2007, PHYS REV E, V76, DOI 10.1103-PhysRevE.76.046203; CAHN JW, 1958, J CHEM PHYS, V28, P258, DOI 10.1063-1.1744102; DAS I, 1987, J PHYS CHEM-US, V91, P747, DOI 10.1021-j100287a051; DAS I, 1987, J CRYST GROWTH, V84, P231, DOI 10.1016-0022-0248(87)90135-7; DAS I, 1987, J CRYST GROWTH, V82, P361, DOI 10.1016-0022-0248(87)90326-5; DOUNIN MS, 1928, KOLLOID Z, V48, P167; FEENEY R, 1983, J CHEM PHYS, V78, P1293, DOI 10.1063-1.444867; FLICKER M, 1974, J CHEM PHYS, V60, P3458, DOI 10.1063-1.1681560; Ghosh D.

    Reaction-diffusion based co-synthesis of stable α- and β-cobalt hydroxide in bio-organic gels

    No full text
    We report the preparation, dynamics of formation and extensive characterization of a stable two-phase system of crystalline α- and β-Co(OH)2. The method is based on the reaction and diffusion of hydroxide ions into a biopolymer gel (agar, gelatin) containing Co(II). The spatio-temporal dynamics leading to the formation and coexistence of two polymorphs exhibit a complicated and rich pattern whereby the system proceeds as a propagating Ostwald ripening front that continuously transforms blue-green α-Co(OH)2 to crystalline β-Co(OH)2. Depending on the nature of the gel, the system might further exhibit fascinating Liesegang bands. The coexisting polymorphs were characterized using XRD, FTIR, UV-vis, TGA, SEM and TEM, and EPR. The FTIR spectra reveal the intercalation of water molecules and chloride ions between the hydroxyl layers in the case of α-Co(OH)2. X-ray diffraction and electronic microscopy investigations confirm the aforementioned Ostwald ripening process during the phase transformation whereby almost-amorphous α-Co(OH)2 dissolves to form crystalline β-Co(OH)2 5 μm in length. The UV-vis reflectance spectra reveal that the origin of the blue-green color in the α-polymorph is due to the tetrahedrally coordinated Co(II) ions existing within the octahedral Co(II) layers. The reorganization of these tetrahedral Co(II) ions in the α-polymorph to form octahedral Co(II) in the β-polymorph is shown to take place in seconds without induction time. α-Co(OH)2 was found to be mesoporous while the β-polymorph is microporous with low nitrogen adsorption capacities. Due to dipole-dipole broadening, no EPR spectrum was obtained for the β-polymorphs even at low temperature. In contrast, the obtained EPR spectrum of the α-polymorph was consistent with that of Co(II) in various materials. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.
